Codependent relationships; Many codependent people have a deeper belief that if they are not helping people get better they have no value.This is different than enjoying being helpful, or being fulfilled by being other-centered. The individual’s value as a person is based on over-helping or rescuing others. Enablers help others in a way than enables the other to continue unhealthy actions. When relationships problems occur, they always blame themselves. Unhealthy attitudes, self-destructive behaviors, addictions, irresponsibility, etc. are examples of unhealthy actions.//www.psychologytoday.com/blog/romance-redux/201205/why-you-blame-yourself-bad-relationships-and-how-stop

These are often bad relationships. Often these patterns are developed when the individual is very young, co-dependence is part of the family of origin. Sometimes a dysfunctional mother or father hold the child responsible to make them happy, to provide the stability in the family.
